• Can I delete the local data store on esx 3.5?

  I have a client with vmware ESX 3.5 no esxi

  They have a local data store but it is formatted with a block size of 1 MB, so I can put only a 256 GB VM out there and I need to put a test VM with a larger size.

  I know that in ESXi 4 you can simply delete the local data store and create a new, but I'm not familiar with ESX 3.5, are there hidden files on the data store that the server uses?  If I search for the store there's nothing in there.

  Thank you

  Hi Mike,.

  You can simply reformat your data store. Take a look at the following article:

  • http://userssuck.com/2007/07/12/how-to-change-the-blocksize-of-a-VMFS-filesystem/

  Of course, you must back up and delete any data you have on this data store before the format operation.

  Good luck!

• Clone the virtual machine to the local data store

  Hi all

  I'm looking to automate a task daily (or almost) of my friends with a small script with powercli.

  I'm trying to "backup" or to clone a virtual machine, I work in a storage of one of our servers.

  The servers are managed by a 5.1 vCenter and the machine is on a shared storage.

  From time to time, I clean, stop the machine, remove all snapshots and clone the virtual machine to one of the local server as a backup storage. So I put together a small script which almost works. It works as long as the target data store is a shared storage, but not with a local storage.

  I get always an error that claims it can not access the local data store and is not a permissions problem...

  Given that I can accomplish this via the customer without problem I thought it is possible via powercli too, or I'm wrong?

  My Script up to now:

  # Variables
  $VC = "vc.domain.com" #vCenter Server
  $User = "domain\user" #User
  $Pass = 'test123' #User PW
  $VMName = 'scripttest' #VM
  $BackupSuffix = "backup" #Suffix to add the name of VM to mark this as a backup
  $VmHost = "esx2.domain.com".
  $Datastore = 'ESX2-LocalData' #Datastore
  $BackupFolder = 'Backup' #Folder the VM gets classified

  
  

  # Register cmdlets to VMware
  

  If (-not (Get-PSSnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core - ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)) {}

  Add-PSSnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core

  }

  
  

  # Connect to the server

  SE connect-ViServer $VC - user $User-password $Pass

  
  

  # Remove the old clone

  $OldBackups = get - VM | WHERE {$_.} {Name: corresponds to '$VMName - $BackupSuffix'}

  If ($OldBackups - don't "")

  {

  If ($OldBackups.Count - gt 1)

  {

  Foreach ($VM to $OldBackups)

  {

  Write-Host $VM. Name

  }

  }

  on the other

  {

  Remove-VM - VM $OldBackups - DeleteFromDisk-confirm: $false

  }

  }

  
  

  # Clone VM

  $VMInfo = get - VM $VMName | Get-View

  $CloneSpec = new-Object Vmware.Vim.VirtualMachineCloneSpec

  $CloneSpec.Snapshot = $VMInfo.Snapshot.CurrentSnaphshot

  $CloneSpec.Location = new-Object Vmware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec

  $CloneSpec.Location.Datastore = (get-Datastore-name $Datastore |) Get - View). MoRef

  $CloneSpec.Location.Transform = [Vmware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateTransformation]: sparse

  $CloneFolder = $VMInfo.Parent

  $CloneName = "$VMName - $BackupSuffix".

  $TaskCloneID = $VMInfo.CloneVM_Task ($CloneFolder, $CloneName, $CloneSpec)

  
  

  # Check if the task is completed

  
  

  $Check = $false

  While ($Check - eq $false)

  {

  Can you show us the complete error message you get?

  BTW, the clone step can be replaced by the New-VM cmdlet with the setting of the virtual machine.

• Local data store renaming problem with the cmdlet set-datastore

  Hiya,

  I just started using powercli to configure my ESX Servers 4.1i.

  Most of my script version works fine - but I can't rename the local data store.

  I do a get-data store based on the name that works very well, I then pipe series-store data with a new name-, but it just seems to ignore the order and leave it with the old name.

  No error message is produced.

  I pasted in the results of the "get-data store" (just to show that it exists) and the results of the 'get-datastore piped to set-data store", below.

  I'm sure I'm missing something really obvious - but I do not know what?

  When you add a server ESX to vCenter, agent VirtualCenter (vpxa) service is installed on the ESX Server.

  All actions you take in the vSphere ESX server customer or a PowerCLI script when you are connected to the vCenter, passed through this vpxa service. This service manages the resources on the ESX Server.

  To avoid problems when you change some resources directly from the COS of ESX, vpxa services locks these resources.

  That's why you can not change the datastorename when you are connected directly to an ESX Server that has been added to a vCenter.

  BTW, if you connect a vSphere client directly to the ESX Server, you will see the same phenomena as what you see in your script PowerCLI.

  If you need to change the datastorename locally on the ESX for some reason, you can try to remove the ESX Server with Remove-VMHost to vCenter, connect to the server with Connect-VIServer ESX, make your changes and add it to the vCenter with Add-VMHost.

• How can I move virtual machines from a local data store for a new iSCSI SAN?

  Hello guys,.

  Now that we have a new iSCSI SAN market how can I tranfer all the virtual machine to a local data store for a new SAN? Can I stop the VM in the host, and then copy the DataStore files with all the info on the new volume?

  Thank you

  Alternatively, you can use VMware converter or cold Migration / Storage VMotion if you have the appropriate licenses.

  Dear all,

  We have enclosed a case at VMware, please find their findings on the same.

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  After the webex session, we just had, I discovered the root cause of the problem reported to an underlying problem on the block device (the logical drive, or a problem on the Board) presented to accommodate the data in question store successfully.

  In short, whenever we try to do raw reading from the disk (from sector 0), the same always fail when we reach the 30932992 bytes (31 MB) brand with an IO error (which is consistent, he is always on this region of the disc that read operations fail, no more, no less). This result can be seen, even if no partition is in the disk (using if = / dev/sdb instead of/dev/sdb1 with dd) and even after zeroing on all sectors (if dd \u003d/dev/zero of = / dev/sdb). Strangely, read operations work fine (as he writes zeros of random data) throughout the entire disk. Keep in mind that the tests I did with no VMware tools (I used almost only dd for these operations), which prohibits certainly a VMware problem (in fact, if you were to try to start the server with a Linux live CD and run the same tests that I did, you would see the same behavior).

  I know that there is no report of material of any bad behavior on the table, but data collected with our tests today completely invalid who. The next step is for you to take this to the server provider to check for problems on the table or discs, because they are there and they are the reason for the problem you reported initially.

  Please let me know if you have other questions about it.

  Thank you

• Shared vs datastore stores local data and DNS in 5.1

  I read page 56 of the vSphere, ESXi, vCenter Server 5.1 Upgrade Guide

  It addresses the issue of DNS load balancing and vCenter Server data store name.

  I think it's to discuss the issue of shared storage and multiple hosts accessing a data store-same and that each host must VMware it the same name, due to how 5.1 doesn't solve VoIP DNS names, but now uses the DNS name for the data store.

  I have no shared storage.  They are all my data store (3 now 3 guests) local.  I guess I have in no way the need to appoint all my local data stores the same.  Correct?

  Here is the text directly from the page 56:

  DNS load balancing solutions and vCenter Server Datastore Naming

  vCenter Server 5.x uses different internal numbers for the storages of data than previous versions of vCenter Server. This

  change affects the way you add NFS shared data warehouses to the hosts and can assign the vCenter Server updates

  5.x.

  names of host IP addresses versions before version 5.0 vCenter Server convert data store. For example, if you

  mount a NFS data by the name \\nfs-datastore\folder, pre - 5.0 vCenter Server store versions convert the name

  NFS-data store to an IP address like 10.23.121.25 before putting it away. The original name of nfs-data store is lost.

  This conversion of hostnames to IP addresses a problem when using DNS load balancing solutions

  with vCenter Server. Replicate data and appear as a single logical DNS load balancing solutions

  data store. The load balancing occurs during the conversion to IP host datastore in solving the

  host name to different IP addresses, depending on the load data store. This load balancing happens outside

  vCenter Server and is implemented by the DNS server. In versions prior to version 5.0, features vCenter Server

  like vMotion don't work with this DNS balancing solutions because the load balancing causes a

  data store logic to appear that several data stores. vCenter Server fails to perform vMotion because he cannot

  recognize that what it considers multiple data warehouses are actually a single logical datastore that is shared between

  two hosts.

  To fix this, versions of vCenter Server 5.0 and later do not convert names to IP addresses data store

  When you add data warehouses. This measure of vCenter Server to recognize a store of data shared, but only if you add the

  data store for each host in the same data store name. For example, vCenter Server does not recognize a data store

  as shared between hosts in the following cases.

  -The data store is added by hostname and IP address on host1 to host2.

  -The data store is added by host name to host1 and host2 to hostname.vmware.com.

  VCenter Server to recognize a shared data store you must add the store of data of the same name in each

  host.

  You have reason - the section relates to the NFS shared storage - with the same NFS server load balancing is multiple IP addresses - in older versions of vCenter as the name of the NFS server is converted into intellectual property that could be different that would cause problems with vMotion and other opt vCenter - with vCenter 5.1 NFS host name is maintained.

• I'm looking to get my favorites after a reformat. However, I don't have a system in place, so I can't go to my data. Can a Mozilla employee just send me an email with my recovery key so that I can get everything set up?

  A few days ago I reformatted my laptop. And unfortunately, I forgot to save my favorites. Today, however, I remembered that I had put a timing earlier. Here is some of the best. Initially, I had Firefox Home installed and set up on my iPod Touch. But I had deleted a month later because I've never used it. Now I'm recovering my favorites via Sync. But since it is installed on my computer or my iPod, I can't go to my data, because Sync is assuming that one or the other is actually put in place. So, I was hoping that someone can send me the key to recovery for my account. The e-mail address used to set up synchronization is [email protected].

  Hello!

  Unfortunately, you're the only one with access to your recovery key. It "generated locally so that no one else has.

• Cannot find the locale data files. Please reinstall

  I had a problem with Google Chrome, so I uninstalled via the control panel. I then reinstalled and I have this problem. I always present in my programs in the watched folder, but when I select to demolished, he said ' wait until the current program has finished install or changing.» I have no other program install or change. If I try to open Google, anywhere Progams, taskbar, all programs or directly from the .exe LocalApps it gives me the "could not find the locale data files. Please reinstall.

  I found the answer to my question. It seems that you can build processes, I don't understand why. For example I had a problem with my windows Explorer crashing. I disabled all the startup process of msconfig.

  In my view, there must be something in there that closes a completed process.
  Then I had, unknown to me, when I posted this problem, six or seven cases Google chrome showing the the Task Manager process tab. When I quit all instances of Google, I was able to finish the removal process and re - install Google Chrome.
  I just checked right now and I have six Google shown 3 rundll32.exe and two taskeng.exe bodies. I've never seen no more than one instance of anything in this tab before today.
  Disabling all startup stuff does not solve my problem to explore some way so I'll allow them once again.
  Thank you for helping me and I hope that someone can get useful information from my travels.

• How can we localize the dynamic data coming from the server?

  I searched the forum but did not get the answer.

  For local data we can put the location of this data type in file HR Manager, what the text resulting from server...?

  Any idea? Thank you.

  You need to do on the side server. Obviously, the server protocol must support in a certain way.

  You can use Locale.getDefault () to get the locale default application, from which you can extract the language, country and variant codes.

  [Edit: well, there is no need to do this way.] The server could, for example, provide a response that includes all locations. You can select that one to use on the device. But this would not be my first choice of how to do].
